天下皆知
“When the world knows beauty as beauty, ugliness arises. When it knows good as good, evil arises. Being and non-being give rise to each other.”
天下皆知美之为美,斯恶已;皆知善之为善,斯不善已。故有无相生,难易相成,长短相形,高下相倾,音声相和,前后相随。是以圣人处无为之事,行不言之教。万物作焉而不辞,生而不有,为而不恃,功成而弗居。夫唯弗居,是以不去。
Nothing exists in isolation. Joy and sorrow, success and failure — each defines the other. When you accept both, you find peace in the middle.
此章揭示对立的统一性。
王弼注:'喜怒同根,是非同门,故不可得而偏举也。
' 美丑、善恶、有无、难易、长短、高下、前后——皆相对而生。
圣人处无为之事:非不作为,乃不妄为、不偏执。
行不言之教:身教重于言传。
